Yes some came factory with aluminum buttplates. Same shape as the plastic. Easy swap if you find one. I’m not sure what year.

That’s a rare early variation with the front sight base soldered to barrel and pinned in blade. Later variations had the screw on front sight assembly. I think your was only the first year of memory serves. Nice snag.

Thank you. After digging into this, I probably need heavier bullets to really take advantage of this cartridge. I have H110, both power and sport pistol, 2400 and bullseye but not much else for higher power handgun powder. My Hornady 10th edition reloading guide has no page for 327. I don’t...

I’m working with a new to me 327 single seven, I have Federal brass, factory Hornady XTP 85 grain bullets. Any suggested loads that will help me get on paper with it. Not looking for top end, more looking for a known accurate load. Thanks.

Great rifles, my go to is a 45-70, I’ve had all the calibers except the Krag. You do need to be careful with the 44 magnum version, I’ve run across a couple that were reamed to accept 444 Marlin. While a useful modification, it does hurt the value.

It is a cool gun. I had a 77 RLS in 243 and another in 308. Having a short barrel high power rifle with porting makes my ears hurt just thinking about it.

Would this fit an OM 357 Blackhawk frame, I.e. to use as part of a 44 special conversion? Thanks.

Thank you for the replies. Sounds like a full frame 357. I’ll prod him to make a 357 Bain and Davis out of it.

I have a question on new model Ruger Blackhawk cylinders. Do they interchange with any other Ruger cylinder? A friend has a NM 357 stainless in 357/38, recent production with 38 prefix serial number, 6.5” barrel and protected rear sight. He wants to get a 9mm cylinder. Can he adapt a cylinder...

Is this the same gun? http://www.gunbroker.com/item/601432425
